First day off together today. Just came back. Had a great time. Due to her inability to get herself together until bout noon I made the most of it in the morning by doing a few loads of clothes.
Drove over the new bridge to fisherman’s wharf. Didn’t stop , just drove through. Plan to head there again tomorrow but this time via BARt and F-Market street car. Since I dont feel like fighting for a parking space at some 9 bucks or more per hour. Went around Lombard street to see a few cable cars. Heard on the radio that the Kiwis are one race away from winning the America’s cup ! And they probably would’ve done it except race two was cancelled due to high winds on the bay. Was a gorgeous sunny day today on the bay . Winds may have indeed been strong as i have never seen windsurfers go at such speeds today from my vantage point at Crissy (SP) Field.
Stopped by the Palace of Fine Arts where they have that Greek (I think) structure dating from some World Fair. Its a nice photo op place.
Dropped by the GG bridge right after, and walked bout a fifth of the way across . Another photo op . She was thrilled to see and be at the world famous landmark of a bridge.
Stopped briefly at Twin Peaks to check out the sights, but (its always cold there) the cold got to her and she hurried back to the car after about zero point three seconds outside.
Malled it at Stonestown Galleria and she got two nice pair of jeans (size 0 ?? !! ) on a buy one (for 29.95) and get one for ten bucks sale.
What i like bout her? Shes a ROSS shopper like me. Happy to get a bargain and not requiring name brands per se. More like , the item is nice, fits the bill and the price is right…go for it… kinda gal !
Very refreshing from the NAME BRAND ONLY and from respectable (read EXPENSIVE) stores only
Taiwanese girls Iv known in the past. Some of whom wouldn’t be caught dead in a ROSS
TAlly from a Ross and a quick Mall visit. 4 pairs of size 0 jeans, three imitation leather jackets , a pair of sandals by Hilfiger, pair of walking shoes by Clark , a jumper, a pair of exercise pants all for 200 dollars. Glad shes easily thrilled.
I haven’t had one of those boiled crabs down at the Fisherman’s Wharf myself since probably 1992, when it was something like ten bucks a crab eating outside and 20 inside. But tomorrow plan to look into that. Hope its still affordable.
WAnted to take the Larkspur ferry to and from for the fantastic views afforded. Prices have crept up though. Was something like 6.25 each way per person not long ago. Now its 9.50 each way per person. So thats 40 bucks to get an hours worth of boat time on the bay. A bit steep but its a fun cruise.
